Dr. Sheshadri SA
Dr. Sheshadri is a molecular biologist specializing in stress physiology, gene regulation, and secondary metabolism. His research investigates how environmental stresses influence gene expression through transcription factors, cis-regulatory elements, and signalling molecules such as melatonin. He has made significant contributions to understanding the molecular regulation of terpenoid indole alkaloid biosynthesis in Catharanthus roseus, with the goal of enhancing the production of pharmaceutically important compounds. Dr. Sheshadri has published several peer-reviewed research articles in leading international journals, including Frontiers in Plant Science, Scientific Reports, Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, and RSC Advances. His work combines molecular biology, functional genomics, bioinformatics, and biotechnology to decipher complex regulatory networks and improve metabolite production. His research interests include stress-responsive signalling pathways, genome-wide cis-regulatory element analysis, metabolic engineering, and functional gene characterization.
